The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

Walking out of tired hands, have 2 half growlers to LICC @edhizdeid

 

I've been MIA down in Boise for work for the last week, and making an attempt to drink the town dry.
a lot to catch up on, and some great looking hauls already.

I still have some shopping to do, and my box will land the last week of the month.

Hint 1: Shipping south
Hint 2: there are more than one participants in my target's state
Hint 3: My target is in the original 13 colonies

 

Annnnd down to 3.

 

Finally getting my box packed up. Actually going to do two just because it's what's easier for me. Once is already packed up. sadly I haven't been able to get the specific wants from a brewery but I got another beer of theirs in a style you like rated 94, 4.25. I have two more beers to get tomorrow and I think I'm ready to send.

Hint whatever: We have atleast one shared character in our BA user names.

 

T-minus 3 days until targets area is hit by a beerquake!

Picked up a few new things today, and got a couple things for free.
Three Taverns Theophan the Recluse
3x Westbrook Dark Helmet
32oz Growler of Wild Heaven White black bird saison.
2011 Avery 18th anni
2012 Rare vos

Paragraph below is about last 2 bottles.

I have been going back to this same shop for a while, keep finding weirder and weirder things in their cellars however today he gave me 2 things free that I found while digging through all the bottles.. Today's weird finds are 2011 Bottle of avery 18th anniversary dry hopped saison, tucked back behind a bit of 750ml label less bottles, and a 2012 Ommegang Rare Vos. Both free, and I am gonna try em and see what they are like this far along in their life. He said he had one of the 18th anniversary bottles a month or so ago, and it still has a good saison flavor, but has pretty much lost all hops.

 

Wow, nice. Those Dark Helmets look awesome.

 

I want a Dark Helmet because Mel Brooks!

 

Hint #7 If I walked to my targets city it would take me 371 hours

 

Hmmm...I had you eliminated for some reason, and I don't know what city you live in, but Houston to Milwaukee is 372 hours...

Edit: 1/2 mile or hour from Wauwatosa, hmm? I can taste the New Glarus already.

 

LIF box packed and random number generated. Will be dropping off tomorrow, and as a hint, I've never shipped you anything before now.

 

not me... ... but happy for your target!

 

Yeah, sorry dude. I wish I could send out 22 little care packages. Maybe if I win the lottery some day...

 

Well I had 5, I believe I might have lost one...Only have 4 now..Hopefully it turns up, if it does let me know been looking high and low. May the Schwartz be with you.

 

Hint #1: Shipping EAST!
Hint #2: I have never shipped anything to my target before
Hint #3: My target has never shipped anything to me before
Hint #4: I am shipping both North and East of Wedowee, AL
Hint #5: My target listened to my past request and added a few wants from Colorado, of which I will be able to hit several...
Hint #6: My target is good at using the process of elimination to eliminate other senders, as I've tried to keep my hints vague...

...and as another fun game for my target, I'll issue him a challenge...I'm bored of those "like this post and I'll send you X bottle" posts, so...

The challenge will be called: I want you to want my bottle

I don't think it'll be particularly difficult, but a challenge nonetheless... I will be hitting mutiples of my targets wants, but there is one particular bottle from one particular brewery that I think he would enjoy, but it is not on his wants.... This brewery is based in the city in which I currently live and has a very good reputation amongst the beer knurds... the specific bottle was released for the first time about 10 or so days ago during GABF week, it was a brewery only release, and it sold out in a matter of days... my target has several other beers from this brewery on his wants, but not this particular bottle.... I could easily trade this bottle away, as it's trading quite well right now, but I would rather send it to my target.... your challenge is simply to add this bottle to your wants.... I have full faith that you will meet this challenge and that I will be able to send you this bottle (and please don't just add every single bottle that is brewed in my town to your wants )... Good luck!

 

Booooo

 

It's like taking a test, maybe a difficult chemistry one. They say stick to your original answer, don't second guess yourself.

 

Oak Creek, WI, United States10/11/20149:21 A.M.
10/10/20141:40 P.M.A late UPS trailer arrival has caused a delay. We're adjusting plans to deliver your package as quickly as possible. / Delivery will be rescheduled.



Damn you UPS.

 

Hmmmm... 50/50 chance here. Could only go and find 2 hints from you, nothing concrete. UPS is sucking lately though. That happened during my last trade I was involved in but it came the next day.

 

I'm down to three of you people.

 

Pretty sure this isn't me, but I think I added the right thing ...
